A uniform rod of mass 3.30×10−2 kg and length 0.450 m rotates in a horizontal plane about a fixed axis through its center and pe

rpendicular to the rod. Two small rings, each with mass 0.200 kg , are mounted so that they can slide along the rod. They are initially held by catches at positions a distance 5.20×10−2 m on each side from the center of the rod, and the system is rotating at an angular velocity 35.0 rev/min . Without otherwise changing the system, the catches are released, and the rings slide outward along the rod and fly off at the ends.
(a) What is the angular speed of the system at the instant when the rings reach the ends of the rod?

(b) What is the angular speed of the rod after the rings leave it?

(a) 2.75 rev/min

The moment of inertia of the rod rotating about its center is:

I_R=\frac{1}{12}ML^2

where

M=3.30\cdot 10^{-2} kg is its mass

L = 0.450 m is its length

Substituting,

I_R=\frac{1}{12}(3.30\cdot 10^{-2})(0.450)^2=5.57\cdot 10^{-4} kg m^2

The moment of inertia of the two rings at the beginning is

I_r = 2mr^2

where

m = 0.200 kg is the mass of each ring

r=5.20\cdot 10^{-2} m is their distance from the center of the rod

Substituting,

I_r=2(0.200)(5.20\cdot 10^{-2})^2=1.08\cdot 10^{-3} kg m^2

So the total moment of inertia at the beginning is

I_1=I_R+I_r = 5.57\cdot 10^{-4}+1.08\cdot 10^{-3}=1.64\cdot 10^{-3}kg m^2

The initial angular velocity of the system is

\omega_1 = 35.0 rev/min

The angular momentum must be conserved, so we can write:

L=I_1 \omega_1 = I_2 \omega_2 (1)

where I_2 is the moment of inertia when the rings reach the end of the rod; in this case, the distance of the ring from the center is

r=\frac{0.450 m}{2}=0.225 m

so the moment of inertia of the rings is

I_r=2(0.200)(0.225)^2=0.0203 kg m^2

and the total moment of inertia is

I_2 = I_R + I_r =5.57\cdot 10^{-4} + 0.0203 = 0.0209 kg m^2

Substituting into (1), we find the final angular speed:

\omega_2 = \frac{I_1 \omega_1}{I_2}=\frac{(1.64\cdot 10^{-3})(35.0)}{0.0209}=2.75 rev/min

(b) 103.0 rev/min

When the rings leave the rod, the total moment of inertia is just equal to the moment of inertia of the rod, so:

I_2 = I_R = 5.57\cdot 10^{-4}kg m^2

So using again equation of conservation of the angular momentum:

L=I_1 \omega_1 = I_2 \omega_2

We find the new final angular speed:

\omega_2 = \frac{I_1 \omega_1}{I_2}=\frac{(1.64\cdot 10^{-3})(35.0)}{5.57\cdot 10^{-4}}=103.0 rev/min

A stubborn, 100 kgkg mule sits down and refuses to move. To drag the mule to the barn, the exasperated farmer ties a rope around
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

No, the farmer is not able to move the mule.

Explanation:

Mass =100 kg

Force=F=800 N

The coefficient between the mule and the ground=\mu_s=0.8

\mu_k=0.5

Static friction force,f=\mu N

Normal force=N=mg

Static friction force,f=\mu_s mg=0.8\times 100\times 9.8=784 N

Using g=9.8m/s^2

F<f

Static friction force is greater than applied force.

Therefore , the farmer is not able to move the mule.

An RC circuit is connected across an ideal DC voltage source through an open switch. The switch is closed at time t = 0 s. Which
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

e)

Explanation:

In an RC series circuit, at any time, the sum of the voltages through the resistor and the capacitor must be constant and equal to the voltage of the DC voltage source, in order to be compliant with KVL.

At= 0, as the voltage through the capacitor can't change instantaneously, all the voltage appears through the resistor, which means that a current flows, that begins to charge the capacitor, up to a point that the voltage through the capacitor is exactly equal to the DC voltage, so no current flows in the circuit anymore, and the charge in the capacitor reaches to its maximum value.

A mass m = 1.1 kg hangs at the end of a vertical spring whose top end is fixed to the ceiling. The spring has spring constant k
adell [148]

Answer:

a) = 10.22 rad/s

b) = 0.35 m

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the particle, m = 1.1 kg

Force constant of the spring, k = 115 N/m

Distance at which the mass is released, d = 0.35 m

According to the differential equation of s Simple Harmonic Motion,

ω² = k / m, where

ω = angular frequency in rad/s

k = force constant in N/m

m = mass in kg

So,

ω² = 115 / 1.1

ω² = 104.55

ω = √104.55

ω = 10.22 rad/s

If y(0) = -0.35 m and we want our A to be positive, then suffice to say,

The value of coefficient A in meters is 0.35 m
